LG announces the LG Q7, Q7+, and Q7α with 5.5-inch 18:9 displays

We all know that the G series is LG’s current flagship line with it being released during the first half of the year. The LG G7 was announced earlier this month, and now the company has introduced an update to their low-end Q series of smartphones that they are currently trying to build brand reputation and recognition. They announced the Q6, Q6+, and the Q6α last year in July. We’re a couple of months early compared to last year, but LG has just announced their successors as the LG Q7, LG Q7+ and the LG Q7α.

Last year the LG Q6 series was rocking the Snapdragon 435 SoC, and while they still might be using a Qualcomm chipset, it’s actually going unnamed in this announcement information. All we are told here is that the LG Q7 series will have an octa-core SoC which can reach speeds of 1.5GHz or 1.8GHz depending on the model. One of the features that is staying from last year, though, is the FullVision display, as all three of these smartphones will be equipped with an 18:9 FHD+ panel capable of 2160 x 1080 pixels.

We’re told the three different devices in the LG Q series will be released in various markets around the world. It looks like some markets may receive one or two variants while others might not even see the device released at all. The release dates are currently unknown and LG says they’ll announce pricing at the time of availability.
